Official Desktop Screenshot Topic

Post by Blade Genexis »

Due to popular demand we have decided to create an official topic for posting your desktop screenshots! The rules are simple. Don't post the full screenshot here. Stick to thumbnail previews. You can link to the full view externally. Post as much information as you please. Here is mine for example:

Image

Operating System: Ubuntu Linux 10.04 LTS (Lucid Lynx)
Desktop Environment: GNOME 2.30.2
Theme: Orta 1.4.41
Wallpaper: Photograph courtesy of Taifa Photography.
Comments: Full names in Pidgin have been grayed out. Top icons are bookmark shortcuts that open in Google Chrome when clicked (the chao icon leads to Chao Island). Dock is simply a window manager (Docky). Sidebar is a heavily customized Conky script I worked on myself. All information is updated in real time. Volume tracker (Impulse Screenlet) at the bottom of sidebar. Any questions, feel free to ask.
That's it. Happy posting! :chaohappy:
Without change, there can be no progress.

Nothing too interesting. Just Homestuck. :P
My desktop is kind of messy, but I don't feel like cleaning it up right now.

Background image was made by musk-parfait on deviantArt.

Operating System: Ubuntu Linux 10.04 LTS Lucid Lynx
Desktop Environment: GNOME 2.30.2
Theme: elementary ng
Wallpaper: Wikileaks...
Comments: There were some elves harmed in the making of this screenshot, but not to badly because I ran out of pain sticks... Luckily though it didn't take them to long to produce the shot, but I did send them to the dungeon for the night for not updating my playlist with the latest guns and roses album. On another note, I was able to order more pain sticks easily even with 7/8 of my elf task force running rampid acrossed my mother board... Hopefully I'll get my next screen shot up sooner next time asumming my new Ghz elfs are house broken by then...

EDIT: I added a thumnail pix because blade elf said i should and had the pain stix so i had 2 go it.

Don't ask about the icons, plox. Some of them are completely unused and need to be removed.

Operating System: Windows Vista Home Premium (64-bit)
Display Resolution: 1280×800 (WXGA)
Wallpaper: :GRID-RaceR.exe. Digital artwork courtesy of Gavade from deviantART.
Comments: Pretty basic desktop. I try to avoid cluttering it up with unnecessary shortcut icons. I had just begun sporting this desktop background yesterday actually; as prior to the one I'm currently using, I had, for over a year, been using a piece entitled Samus Modern Wallpaper..., which was created by the same deviantARTist mentioned above. I really find their style of digital artwork fascinating and appealing to look at.

This is a little philosophical gem that I said when I was insanely tired.

My desktop's backround is pretty boring. Also, the picture is too wide to post. It's more than 800 pixels.

The OS is Windows Vista, if you couldn't tell.
